How do I visualize interaction networks?

The skill provides a string_network_image function that generates PNG files with evidence, confidence, or action-based coloring.

How does the skill handle different confidence levels?

Users can set a required_score between 0 and 1000, where 400 is medium confidence and 900 is the highest stringency.

Does it support species other than humans?

Yes, it supports over 5,000 organisms, including mouse, rat, yeast, and many others, using NCBI taxon IDs.

What databases are used for functional enrichment?

Enrichment analysis includes Gene Ontology (GO), KEGG pathways, Pfam domains, InterPro, SMART, and UniProt keywords.

What is the STRING Database skill?

It is a specialized Claude Code capability that interfaces with the STRING REST API to perform advanced protein network analysis and functional characterization.

データサイエンスとML

Queries the STRING database for protein-protein interaction networks, functional enrichment, and biological pathway analysis.

概要

The STRING Database skill integrates comprehensive systems biology capabilities into Claude, allowing for the analysis of over 20 billion protein interactions across 5,000+ species. It enables researchers to map identifiers, retrieve interaction networks with varying confidence thresholds, and perform functional enrichment across Gene Ontology (GO) and KEGG pathways. By providing Python-based automation for the STRING REST API, this skill streamlines complex bioinformatics workflows, including network visualization, homology scoring, and statistical testing for protein module connectivity.
